WEST HARTFORD, Conn. - July 29, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
When Jasdeep Singh was born to two immigrant parents, a college education was the expectation and the dream for a better future. With hard work and dedication, his parents were able to provide Jasdeep the extraordinary opportunity of attending college in the United States of America.
Jasdeep Singh's journey was not without challenges. At the age of 13, Jasdeep lost his father, leaving behind his now-single mother to raise him. Jasdeep's mother was fiercely devoted to her son and determined to give him the best start in life. Through her encouragement, hard work, dedication, and example, Jasdeep went on to attend college and work hard in his career.
Upon the loss of his mother this past January, Jasdeep felt the urge to pass along the gifts he had received from his parents to others who aspire for a better future. He established the Jasdeep Singh Scholarship Fund to honor his parents' memory. The fund is set aside strictly for students who will be the first in their household family to attend an accredited post-secondary school in the United States. Singh is also focusing on supporting Connecticut by setting aside one of the two $1,000 awards for students residing in Connecticut.
Today, Jasdeep, a "lifelong learner", is currently pursuing his MBA at the University of Connecticut. He is proud of his parents' legacy and hopes that the scholarship will give students who have a desire to learn the resources to pursue their dreams.
Jasdeep has websites and blogs available online for those who wish to find out more about the scholarship, his story, and how highly he values education.
